Reinventing the Millennium.

Chapter 190 Want to seize power, do you have enough votes (two in one)

On October 10, the light rain made the air in Shencheng full of humidity.

Wang Fengyi hated this feeling very much, and even felt a little irritable.

However, he didn't know whether the irritability was due to the weather or the man sitting in front of him.

"Brother, what's your situation?"

Sitting in the conference room on the 23rd floor of Hang Lung at six o'clock in the morning, Wang Fengyi swore that this was the earliest time he woke up in a year.

"The policy has to be changed, and I feel very helpless." Fang Zhuo said innocently after drinking the warm soy milk, throwing the cup into the trash can, and facing the questioning eyes of the deputy general manager of Shenxin Kechuang.

"Policy, policy, this, policy..."

As if these two words were burning his mouth, Wang Fengyi kept chanting it over and over again.

Fang Zhuo flew back to Shencheng from Yangcheng in the early morning, and immediately made an appointment with Wang Fengyi to meet at the company in the morning. Although he was exhausted, he still cheered up to deal with the storm that was bound to usher in today.

He continued to ask rhetorically, "Otherwise, am I crazy? My company is No. 1 in the domestic industry. Seeing that there is an opportunity to go public, and seeing that I may become the youngest chairman of a listed company in China, I have a problem in my mind and let me let this go." Chance?"

Wang Fengyi's troubled emotions seemed to overflow from his face. He questioned: "Then why didn't you communicate with me before you made the announcement? You didn't communicate with other investors either!"

"First, if I communicate, will they hinder me from making this announcement? I have to express my opinion before the policy is issued." Fang Zhuo said slowly, "Second, they will do everything possible to withdraw the funds. What should I do? Don’t I just die?”

Fang Zhuo said lightly: "Some people don't want Guahaowang to die, so I can only let it live."

Wang Fengyi very much hoped that Fang Zhuo's address was not "them" but "you", and he was also a victim...why does it sound like an accomplice...

"Brother Wang, you are different from others, you should be able to understand the situation I am facing." Fang Zhuo said gently, "Needless to say, our relationship is extraordinary."

Wang Fengyi pursed his lips, in fact, it was okay.

Fang Zhuo casually took out his company's best honor trophy from the bag on the seat next to him, placed it on the conference table, and sighed: "If you want to win a trophy, you must bear its weight. Brother Wang, I know you have concerns." , let’s not mention the contract or not, let’s take a step back and say, did I cheat you with Penguin’s investment?”

In the first quarter of this year, Penguin achieved a balance of payments and made profits in the second quarter. Because the situation is getting better and better, Shenxin’s second-phase share purchase has been completed ahead of schedule, and the current third-quarter results are even better.

It can be said that this investment led by Wang Fengyili has become a brilliant achievement discussed by everyone in a short period of time.

Wang Fengyi replied sincerely: "Thank you brother for the investment."

"Take another [-] steps, even if you lose money by investing in the registration network, Penguin's income will rise, and the two sides will match each other. Brother Wang, you are still the capable deputy general manager." Fang Zhuo earnestly said.

Wang Fengyi: "...you've settled your account too well."

Fang Zhuo said sternly: "It's the status quo, it's the policy that forced me to do this, otherwise I wouldn't be ashamed to ask Brother Wang for help."

Wang Fengyi's eyes wandered a little.

He sighed, wondering: "Brother, the main thing is that you are too sensitive. We just voted for the front foot, and you said that you can't charge for the back foot. When did you know about this policy?"

It was impossible for Wang Fengyi to be tricked and help, but considering what he said just now and the shiny trophy, he asked a question that must be clarified.

Fang Zhuo didn't answer, he took out his phone and called Zheng Danrui from the promotion and application team.

The call is connected.

"Group leader Zheng, is it because you came to my office to inform me of the policy trend change?" Fang Zhuo said bluntly, "I must use my personality to assure General Manager Wang Fengyi that I am not talking nonsense about this matter."

"Well, yes." Zheng Danrui gave a clear answer without hesitation. In the past two days, he and Fang Zhuo had been raiding members in Guangdong Province, and they understood the situation that Guahao.com would face.

The phone call was too fast, and Wang Fengyi didn't stop him. He said in a jiffy, "Group leader Zheng, hey, brother Fang is too excited. I don't believe him. The main thing is that this happened too suddenly."

Zheng Danrui just said "hmm" and didn't say much, he knew it was his attitude.

"Team Leader Zheng has a good rest. I've troubled the leader for the past two days." Fang Zhuo hung up the phone and said to himself, "Brother Wang, to be honest, I just flew back from Guangdong Province in the early morning and was accompanying Zheng Zuo Come over there to visit friends, and talk about a small piece of land business by the way."

"Guahao.com has lost its core hematopoietic ability, so it is bound to explore more possibilities. The warehousing and distribution of e-commerce medical drugs is a good direction."

Wang Fengyi shook his head in his heart. He didn't believe this at all. Can a company's core business be replaced at will?

In the next second, he suddenly realized and said in surprise, "Land in Guangdong Province? Did you go to raid and spend money?"

Fang Zhuo nodded, and said in a pushy manner: "What Team Leader Zheng means is that he has something to do with it. Guahao.com has picked a place in Macong Town, which is 29 kilometers away from the provincial capital Yangcheng City and 22 kilometers away from the city center of Dongguan. The area is [-] kilometers away, and the geographical location is quite favorable.”

Wang Fengyi thought about it blankly for a few seconds, and lost his voice: "Did you spend the money from the financing?"

Before Fang Zhuo could speak, he heard the noise coming from outside the meeting room. He nodded hurriedly to Wang Fengyi, got up and opened the half-closed door, and saw the people from Qijia Venture Capital.

The leader was Xiong Xiaoge, President of IDG Capital Huaxia Region. This was the second time Fang Zhuo saw him. The last time he was on the stage of CCTV.

Xu Xin, the president of Capital Today, was also familiar in the crowd, and her complexion was a bit complicated.

Almost all other venture capitalists have seen it.

"Everyone is here, come in and sit down." Fang Zhuo calmly greeted the investors.

Guahao.com issued an announcement last night that these people could not get through their phone calls and began to contact other executives. After replying in the early hours of the morning, they made an appointment to meet at the company this morning.

Obviously, they couldn't wait much earlier than the agreed time.

A group of people poured into the meeting room, mixed with messy greetings and reprimands.

Fang Zhuo remained silent, and said sadly after everyone was seated: "As for the major business changes of Guahao.com, I just got the news last night and had to make a decision."

"The industry policy has changed, and the online registration business will be completely free to the public. This is an irreversible trend."

"Originally, I had something to do in Yangcheng, and I flew back to Shencheng in the early morning. I apologize for not being able to inform everyone at the first time."

Fang Zhuo was very organized.

However, it was precisely this kind of attitude that made Xiong Xiaoge insist on his own judgment. This guy must have known about it long ago!
Everything is premeditated!
"Mr. Fang, the second round of financing is based on the development of Guahao.com's core business of online registration. In this situation, no matter how it happened, no matter what difficulties you have, we think it is no longer suitable for continued cooperation."

Xiong Xiaoge went straight to the point, throwing out his own decision: "It also happens that the second round of financing has just been completed, and neither of us will have much loss."

Fang Zhuo was slightly silent.

Then, he said: "Black and white and red official seal, you are in breach of contract."

"I'd rather break the contract than terminate the cooperation!" Xiong Xiaoge said domineeringly, "If we insist on breaking the contract or not, it has to be judged by the court. We actually saw this kind of news involving major business changes from the website. Anyway, I really don't feel your sincerity."

Fang Zhuo said softly: "I'm in Yangcheng, and I arranged things as soon as I got the latest news. I flew back overnight and made an appointment with you early in the morning. I only slept for two hours in between. Isn't that called sincerity?"

Xiong Xiaoge sneered: "If such a president doesn't even have a phone nearby?"

"Really not. I went to Mayong Town in Yangcheng, and I only had time to let the website release the news. The content was all drawn up by themselves." Fang Zhuo explained.

Xiong Xiaoge didn't believe it, and waved his hand: "I don't want to have these verbal disputes with you, today's money, will you refund it?"

Fang Zhuo said without hesitation: "Breach of contract, no refund."

Xiong Xiaoge laughed back in anger: "If you don't retreat, you have to retreat!"

One is the president of the Huaxia District of a well-known capital, and the other is a cutting-edge boss with many venture capitalists. The two of them spoke very fast, and it was not until they looked at each other after saying this sentence that no one else realized it.

"Mr. Fang, you also have a famous person. You have been on CCTV and received an exclusive interview. Why bother? Get your money back." Xu Xin from Capital Today has dealt with Fang Zhuo before, and persuaded him softly.

"Just like Mr. Xiong said, the company didn't notify in advance of important matters. The core business lost the possibility of profitability, and the foundation for financing no longer exists. You can refund the money." Lin Jia, the executive deputy director of 3i Group, said with a frown.

Zhou Zisen, the vice president of Dachen Venture Capital, also said: "There is nothing else to say, refund the money."

All of a sudden, the seven VCs opened their mouths and merged into one voice—refund!
Wang Fengyi who was sitting on the side was eager to move, and really had the urge to persuade them together.

However, the individual communication just now let him know one thing, there may not be much money in the account of Guahao.com.

Brother Fang is an honest person.

Since it was indeed temporary news, since it was Team Leader Zheng who spoke in person, and since the two of them went to Guangdong Province to acquire land, then the matter was obviously moving forward under the guidance of a will.

Can Brother Fang decide this?
No.

If that's the case, it's better to sell favors, and even if you really tear your face, you won't get any money.

Wang Fengyi thought like this, but he didn't help Fang Zhuo. He wanted to see if these people could force out money.

In the conference room, Fang Zhuo faced the crowd alone. If he didn't speak, his words would be drowned out by everyone's voices.

However, the eyes represent the attitude.

When the voices in the meeting room gradually subsided, Fang Zhuo said slowly: "Not long ago, everyone was sitting together with great ambitions. Now when we encounter something, we immediately fight back. It's too chilling."

Xiong Xiaoge thought it was funny, who was chilling?

Fang Zhuo's expression gradually became sad and angry: "It happened suddenly, and I also have sincerity!"

Fang Zhuo's expression was very sad and indignant: "If you want to withdraw the capital now, that is to let Guahao.com die!"

Fang Zhuo's expression was completely sad and indignant: "There is no one who bullies people like this! 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor!"

Everyone: "..."

Please, this is Hedong last month, and Hexi this month, don’t bully venture capitalists!
Xiong Xiaoge just sneered, and said domineeringly: "If you feel that you have breached the contract, then go through legal procedures. Anyway, if you withdraw today, you must withdraw, or if you don't, you must withdraw!"

Fang Zhuo also sneered: "I would like to know why I have to retreat if I don't retreat?"

"President Wang, what do you say?" Xiong Xiaoge suddenly looked at Wang Fengyi who was silent.

For a moment, everyone, including Fang Zhuo, looked at him.

Seven VCs, one with administrative connections.

Wang Fengyi was really flustered. He coughed, hesitated for three seconds, and glanced at the "National Internet Innovation Enterprise" trophy on the table from the corner of his eye, and said, "We apply for new, cough, we apply for new It signed a 'concerted action agreement' with Guahao.com."

The venture capitalists invariably had an idea in their hearts, there is a traitor among us!

Xiong Xiaoge didn't persuade, but said in a warning way: "Mr. Wang, you have to take care of the overall situation at a time like this."

Wang Fengyi didn't make a sound.

Fang Zhuo laughed instead, and asked: "Mr. Xiong, what is the overall situation? After you leave this door, you can ask the public, because Guahao.com will be withdrawn because it does not want to collect money from them. Who is the overall situation?" ?”

Xiong Xiaoge said coldly: "These are two different things. Fang Zhuo, I now demand that the shareholders' meeting be held immediately."

He said word by word: "Remove your position as president, and nominate me, Xiong Xiaoge, as the president of Guahao.com."

There was a "Second" sound from the side.

Fang Zhuo spoke angrily, "Want to seize power? Do you have enough votes!"

Xiong Xiaoge stared at Fang Zhuo: "Shenxin is only 13%, plus your 33.56%, and the co-founder's 2.52%, only 49.08%. Do you think we have enough votes?"

Fang Zhuo laughed suddenly: "How much is the sum of the seven of you?"

He asked himself and answered: "45.8%."

The two looked at each other, and they both understood that the key point of share voting lies in the 5.12% of the company's option pool.

However, Xiong Xiaoge had a bad feeling in his heart, if the other party was deliberately planning...

The expression on his face remained unchanged, showing the ownership of the last 5.12% of the votes: "Sequoia controls the equity of Lugua."

The registered name of Guahao.com is Anhui Province Guahao.com, and the Luguo in Xiong Xiaoge's mouth is Luzhou Guahao.com, which is specially registered to hold options on behalf of others.

Because the practice of reserving shares in advance is not allowed in China, the setting of the option pool is to hold these shares through a specific person or establish a new company.

Whenever a high-level employee is granted options, the employee will receive shares in the new company and indirectly acquire shares in the company.

This is the approach adopted by Guahao.com. Its angel round is Sequoia Investment, and a Luzhou Guahao.com is established as a proxy holder. At the same time, the major shareholder of this company is Sequoia.

Now, it only needs Lu Gua of Sequoia Holdings to take out 5.12% of the 4.2% of the option pool, then the voting rights of the shares of the venture capitalists are greater than that of the company team.

The corner of Fang Zhuo's mouth twitched slightly, and he pressed the speed dial on his mobile phone: "Everyone with voting rights in the company comes to the conference room."

In just two seconds, the door of the meeting room was pushed open.

Yu Hong, Su Wei, Zhou Xin and two others walked in.

"Mr. Xiong, let me introduce you. These two are the deputy directors of our technology department, Chen Ming and Wei Wei. They are both from the University of Science and Technology. They each hold 0.5% of the option pool. In other words, we are not 49.08%. "

Fang Zhuo calmly introduced the two deputy directors.

Xiong Xiaoge stared blankly at the two deputy directors, not 49.08%, but 50.08%.

He looked back at the Sequoia people.

Sequoia's Vice President Liao Yong asked anxiously, "When did this happen?"

"It's good that Sequoia is the major shareholder, but I'm the legal person and president of Lugua. Maybe Sequoia didn't pay attention to such a trivial matter. After all, it's normal to offer conditions to senior talents." Fang Zhuo explained calmly.

In fact, these two 0.5% were donated to the two deputy directors after the second round of financing, plus the new application of the "concerted action agreement", it was just enough votes.

AB shares are not popular in China now, otherwise it would be easier.

Xiong Xiaoge stared at the young CEO in the conference room, both angry and wanting to laugh.

He nodded again and again: "Okay, okay, Boss Fang, you have courage, good means, willing to bet and admit defeat, willing to bet and admit defeat."

"Okay, I'll wait for Mr. Xiong to find me when he has enough tickets." Fang Zhuo stretched out his right hand to send off the company's investors.

Xiong Xiaoge turned around and left, followed by voices of urging from his colleagues.

He suddenly realized that if he was so deliberate here, the money would most likely disappear.

Hunting geese all day long, today the geese pecked at their eyes!
